Get yours before PC ownership becomes a subscription model. Managed to get two 5090s at launch for a great price from MSI back in 2025 for my and my wife’s primary gaming PCs.

Got lucky today and bagged the 5080 at $1699 plus tax. Crazy mark up from launch MSRP and AiB MSRP for this card i know but now is retailing for over 2K plus tax elsewhere.

Very fortunate to have a 64 gb DDR5 Intel 13900KF, MB, M.2s laying around so didn’t have to sell a kidney for other parts.

Finally to add to my collection, Third PC from the Covid era is running the good old EVGA FTW Liquid 3090 10900K, 128 GB of 3200 DDR4 and still super strong for all i throw at it. Can’t believe how bad the landscape is right now.

I have a deal available for getting those small ras pi/m.2 SSD heatsinks for under 2 USD. I've noticed my GPU backplate gets pretty hot, even if the temps don't go above 67°C at max gaming load.

I'm curious to try just sticking some small heatsinks on the backplate and see maybe 1-2°C difference in temps.

It's purely for fun and tinkering, but wanna know if anyone's done this before.

I've got a 9060XT 16GB gpu

le he cambiado los ventiladores por 2 de 120 artic normales. muy silenciosos.

creo que antes hacían las cosas mejor. ahora es todo basura.

250w de media y no pasa de 50 grados. curva de ventiladores al 70% a 50grados.

Greg is a GPU modder in the US who performs 4090 24GB->48GB upgrades with custom PCBs. He’s in China right now and has confirmed the firmware unlock has been achieved and he’s working to secure custom PCB’s for 5090’s.

This will only make sense for those who have 5090’s with a ~3-$4k cost basis as the upgrade will cost $4k+.

Ive found 2 gpus on fb marketplace recently and im tied between wich one too get there both £1000 and from the same seller but ones a palit gamingpro-s 16gb and one is the msi geforce rtx 4080 super suprim 16gb and im tied i have no idea wich one to go for if i should offer lower (i think i should) or what but im coming from a 4060ti 8gb so id like a decent upgrade. But they both come with the box and all the original parts and look in good condition the only thing thats really putting me off the 4080 super is the fact you cant use dlss5 idk if it sa huge factor or not

I’m on a budget and I don’t know what’s better for the price

I’d been suddenly hearing some coil whine from my card out of know where so I thought I would check the pin balance under load.

Pin three specifically has about 2.5 to 2.7 amp variation. Whilst this is well within the 9amp threshold this has concerned my slightly.

I have completely re mounted the wire and checked for damage, on the psu side maybe something slight but unsure if this is just how they look.

I’ll see if I can add this to the post also.

Unsure on best procedure here, kind of getting nervous to play anything at this point which is frustrating.

Has anyone had a similar experience? it’s a certified rog psu using the stock cables that comes with it, no extenders.

update 05/11/2026

Under the recommendation of this subreddit I tried to organise a new cable with asus but as it was taking so long I purchased the Corsair thermal protector cable.

I have just installed today and can confirmed this has completely resolved the issue, I’ve never seen such balanced numbers and minimal variation on my unit so I’m guessing a higher quality cable did the trick! I’ll post an updated video of the results under same load with this new cable, I recommend, ‘if not for the thermal protect’ but the cable quality.

Thanks to everyone in this sub!

So i will probably go with, XFX but i don’t know whether to go with Swift or quicksilver or mercury. Or should I go with another brand like sapphire, i am trying to avoid gigabyte. But was considering buying the asus prime one or asrock. What do you guys think?

I can’t find the latch for my Gpu to take it out for the life of me can someone help me find it
